It has just the right amount of gas, sweetness, and a great aroma that wafts through the nose. It has been a long time since I last tasted it, but it is still very good.
I had only ever had a Yamadanishiki Shinonoso, but compared to that, it was very fragrant. The aroma of the rice is high, and the sweetness is followed by a savory finish.
Junmai Daiginjyo Medley Vol. 3 here.
Assuming the rice polishing ratio is less than 50% 💦.
Luckily, I decided to drink the new Sanshu Sanshu Yamadanishiki Shonunozo. The bottle was freshly opened and was lively and bouncy. The taste is gorgeous and beautifully sweet. Very tasty!
Rice: Yamadanishiki (Wassui area in the Kikuchi River basin)
Rice polishing ratio
Alcohol content: 13%.
It's drier and less to my liking than the one from two years ago.
I'm a little disappointed.
I'd be happy with something from another brewery if it had a more greeful taste.
Not worth the price
I'll support it since it's close to my hometown.
I look forward to seeing you again.
It is just like fine water. It is easy to drink without any habits. It is soft and elegant. The taste is light and refreshing, and the taste is clear and transparent. It has been a long time since I have had a noble sake. It was a true masterpiece.
Sake rice: HOMASU
Mouth opening schwa! I had a sip of the first sip!
The overall balance is very good
The taste of rare sake rice
We drank it little by little with care!

It has been lying in the refrigerator for nine months. Hozu was cultivated in Kumamoto during the Edo period. Ancient rice, said to be the best rice in the world, was increased in Dojima, Osaka, and made into sake rice. Lightly cloudy with a banana-like aroma. The gentle hint of aroma is nice. The bottle was opened after taking it out of the refrigerator and left it on the table for a while, and the cork flew off. Gononoso's commitment is to make sake using the raw yeast method, brewed in wooden vats, and cultivated without pesticides or compost.
Good evening AAJI!
It's more gassy than the Yamadanishiki Ni Nozomi, and the gas from the aging process must have been amazing 🫧.
There were a lot of rice fields near Hana-no-Ka's brewery, so I guess that's where they make the Hozu as well ✨.
Good evening, Mr. Chesta. I think there are many rice fields near the brewery. At the time of the brewery festival, the farmers won a prize in a drawing, and it felt like a local community. Have you ever been there?
AAJI excuse me again 🙇♂️
I visited Hana no Kaori this October ✨It's a nice, peaceful, small village with a warehouse and rich nature 😊The locals are also very friendly and I had a lot of small talk with my grandparents ☺️
Good evening, Mr. Chesta. Near the Hana-no-Ko sake brewery, there is a castle where Hideyoshi Toyotomi sent his army to conquer the Higo Provincial Revolt in 1587, and the Wahito clan holed up there. I am drinking while thinking about this history.
I'm going to try the Shang Zi, which I've been curious about 🎶🍶 until now it's been hard to get Sansho, but I'm very happy that my favorite store is now a special distributor 💕💕.
Let's start with the aroma🎶✨️It smells sweet and juicy with a little sourness like a gorgeous apple🍎✨️😋.
In the mouth it has a schw🫧 feeling at first, then it's dry and refreshing with acidity 😉 Surprisingly (and I'm the only one who thinks so ❔🤔), it's suitable for a food wine. And since it's low-alcoholic, this is another delicious sake that slurps up 🍶🤤.
When I opened the lid, the moment I removed the plastic cap seal (pon ‼️) and the lid popped to the ceiling (lol), the aroma of black grapes, the mellow sweetness of the rice, and the firm fizz are superb. It is one of the top drinks in the world. Please give it a try, you will be shocked at the deliciousness!
Sweet, honey-like aroma from the moment you open the bottle.
It has acidity and just the right amount of sweetness
I feel so happy to be able to drink sansho at home😃.
It was a delicious, refreshing and easy-to-drink sake with a slight effervescence like cider and an aroma after swallowing. You can drink more and more.
